On a completely unrelated note (hence the randomness), here's today's caption for discussion. Draw parallels to current events, ponder philosophy, or comment on face value. Be polite, and don't yell at each other. Or just be quiet.
Judge Leon M. Basile's words from 1959 when sentencing a white man that had (legally!) married a non-white woman: "Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents. And but for the interference with his arrangement there would be no cause for such marriages. The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix."
Further, as the state was defending it's decision: Thus, the State contends that, because its miscegenation statutes punish equally both the white and the Negro participants in an interracial marriage, these statutes, despite their reliance on racial classifications, do not constitute an invidious discrimination based upon race.
